Hi Roberto,

You're welcome, but read the other comments since they have
important information, including programming practice and a
better explanation to the reason of the crash you were getting.

Yes, this was the problem!
I was confused with the two rows above.
To assign a string to an array is right, but doing the same to a 
pointer need a strcpy or sprintf with the pointer of an allocated 
memory area, as you said.

Thanks a lot, I spent a week to search the problem in the function, 
but the problem was out of it.

Now it works.
